Both models are available with eight-speed automatics and get slightly better fuel economy, as well. The 3.8-liter V6 in the Genesis Coupe now makes 348 horsepower and 296 pound-feet of torque, up from 306 and 266, respectively.

Now, I’m a big fan of the Hyundai Genesis sedan , and I had ridden in an Equus before and found its backseat extremely comfortable, so I was excited to pick up this limousine-like Hyundai from the AOL Autos office in suburban Detroit.

We’re slowly warming to the new Veloster -inspired front fascia, and the other visual changes for 2013 have been easier to appreciate.

Filed under: Coupe , Budget , Performance , Etc. , Japan , Videos , Subaru Subaru and Toyota have certainly set the internet afire with the BRZ and GT86 . Critics and naysayers are already deriding the vehicles as too low on power to survive in a world where the Ford Mustang V6 packs over 300 horsepower and the base Hyundai Genesis Coupe boasts a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine good for 210 ponies. But you know what
